TAKAAKI ITOH-Live At <KLUBNACHT>Berghain.Berlin.Germany.13.7.2013

We are thrilled to present our 97th installment of our Truancy Volume series from Pariah himself. Where the not long past Karenn and Works The Late Nights releases are centred around music that is meant to be elevated by the club atmosphere, Pariah’s Truancy Volume digs further into the origins of where this emphasis stems from. This mixtape is a solid representation of Pariah’s sonic ethos and the mix itself features the inclusion of records like the definitive Oni Ayhun track “OAR002-A,” Sven Vath and a more current Trilogy Tapes release in its introduction, that all focus on the spacious and warmer side of techno. On the other hand, it later showcases a more merciless and weighty side alike in atmosphere to recent productions of his own, such as Power Vacuum and SCKT. Truancy Volume 97 is a welcome addition to our series and a rightful interpretation of the musical tastes and various influences from the producer cum DJ.

Always being led by groovy beats, jacking hi hats, dubb-ish, motor city, and even ravy sounds, she has released some of her own music in labels such as Elements, Rhythm Nation, Detroit Classic Gallery, Lumina... and there's much more music upcoming this year, including a 4 track 12" on Unitas Multiplex, with a banger remix by Narciss'.

She's now about to start her 3rd european tour of the year, and will be visiting Germany, including Berghain on June the 24th, and D! Club in Laussane (Switzerland) next to FJAAK.

"Compared to my last two mixes, which explored introspective travels with layered textures and evolving phases, this one goes straight for the dance floor. I wanted to channel something more extroverted and built for movement. It strips back to the essentials with a 4x4 pulse, raw body music, and a strong rhythmic drive that carries everything forward without holding back."

Olivia Mendez is a vinyl-only DJ, selector, and curator whose sets weave deep, minimalistic techno. Her sound is rooted in rhythm—shaped by her early years as a percussionist and dancer, and refined through a deep immersion in London’s underground scene between 2006 and 2011.

A passionate digger with a background in music journalism and event curation, Olivia approaches her sets as narrative journeys—sonorous, layered, and emotionally resonant. From Brooklyn to Kiev, she’s queered consciousness through sound, creating dancefloors that pulse with tension, release, and intent.

She is the founder of KONVENT, a FLINTA collective dedicated to reshaping feminist discourse through site-specific music and art interventions, and launched her own label, Dust in Grooves. Alongside Chami, she co-runs DIG Curated, a cross-disciplinary platform spotlighting underground sound, visual art, and community-driven projects.

Now based in Berlin, Olivia continues to explore the intersections of activism, art, and sound—smashing the patriarchy, one beat at a time.

Rødhåd - Radio One Essential Mix

David Carretta live@ La Nitro Montpellier (04.04.2003) <<°O°>> !!

This mix was recorded live from Reaktor's Katharsis event in 2017.  For those that don't know, Katharsis happens once a year and is dedicated to the faster, harder and more industrial side of techno.  This was my entire 3 hour set from that night.

Over the last few years we have built a steady relationship doing events together and sharing our passion for this music.  We are teaming up once again for ADE 2018 and releasing this mix as a thank you to all our followers and supporters.

Now an established force in contemporary Techno, Mike Bierbach, better known under his stage name Rødhåd is someone who has seriously put in the work. Having cut his teeth DJing as a relatively unnoted (but well loved by those in the know) local in Berlin for 10 years, one could argue that by the time success knocked on his door, he was more than ready for playing the international stage. It was during these 10 years of obscurity when he refined his craft to become the singular DJ he is now. 

Launching his party-series-turned-label Dystopian in 2009 was what truly tipped the ball over for Rødhåd. In a time where the Berlin scene was heavily oversaturated by fluffy, miscellaneous dance music, he & his peers set out to form a platform for real techno. The reception to this was raucous. 

Although he has lauded productions and remixes to his name, DJing is his true forte. Before abandoning his day job as a draftsman in construction “The Red” (as some call him due to his gingered, bearded appearance) was known for playing very long sets in Berlin’s most notorious hideaways. 

With an album, several EPs & remixes for a multitude of different artists under his belt, Rødhåd the producer has received equal praise as Rødhåd the DJ. Dystopian has hosted most of his releases, but in 2018 he founded a new label WSNWG that serves as a home for collaborative productions, excavated in sessions at his East-Berlin studio with his peers such as Lucy, Alex.Do, & Antigone.
